Singing Ticket!

A Montreal man who was loudly singing in his car while driving was ticketed and fined $149. Police pulled him over and issued him the ticket for screaming in public. According to a Montreal bylaw, “to cause disorder by screaming” violates “peace and tranquility” and can be punishable by a fine of $50 to $1,000 for the first offense and $100 to $2,000 for any additional infractions. His higher than minimum fine was no doubt because he was singing horribly off key.
